[wix-users] Run Burn Boostrapper or the MBA Elevated

Thanks, Sean. That works perfectly for me. I guess this is a good way to get around with Burn 3.x.

By the way, do you know how to establish the communication between the new bundle and the old bundle? I would like the old bundle, during the repairation, can send the progress back to the new bundle instance so I can display that to the user.

I definitely agree we need to add this functionality in Burn, instead of using ApprovedExeForElevation.  For now, the OnLaunchApprovedExeComplete event returns the process id, which you should be able to use to wait for it to exit.
